What is the IK10 Rated EV Charger?
IK ratings, defined under the European standard EN 62262, indicate the degree of protection an enclosure provides against mechanical impacts.
An IK10 rating, the highest on the scale, signifies exceptional impact resistance, capable of withstanding 20 joules of force—comparable to a strong hammer strike.
For EV chargers, an IK10 rating ensures robust durability against both intentional and accidental impacts, making it ideal for public spaces and high-traffic environments, where resilience and reliability are paramoun
Importance of IK10 Ratings for EV Chargers
IK10 ratings are crucial for ensuring the durability and reliability of EV chargers, especially in public spaces or high-traffic areas. The IK10 rating signifies that a charger can withstand an impact of up to 20 joules, equivalent to the force of a 5kg object dropped from 40cm. This level of protection helps prevent damage from accidental knocks, vandalism, or extreme weather conditions, ensuring the charger remains operational in demanding environments. For businesses, institutions, or public locations, choosing IK10-rated EV chargers guarantees long-term functionality, reducing the need for costly repairs or replacements.
When selecting EV chargers, the IK10 rating is a key factor in safeguarding the investment and enhancing user experience. Whether installed in busy city streets, parking lots, or transport hubs, IK10-rated chargers offer peace of mind that the equipment is robust enough to handle external pressures. For electric vehicle owners, it means fewer service interruptions and a reliable charging experience. By opting for chargers with an IK10 rating, you not only protect your investment but also contribute to the longevity and sustainability of the EV charging infrastructure.
